In other words, Fifty Shades of Grey has been considered as female romance porn for the hookup generation in both narrative and movie forms ( Eckman, 2015 Schneiderman, 2012).
Women should claim the right to experience anything which gives them pleasure, gratification, and/or satisfaction, and the right to experiment with a variety of sex practices without limiting themselves to a restricted range of sexual experiences ( Ferguson, 1984 Tong, 2013). According to radical-libertarian feminists, women should retract any moral judgements that stigmatize sexual practices and constrain their sexual freedom. These twenty-first century modern women have bought the book in record numbers. The phenomenon of the book and movie is energized by their appeal to modern women, who manage both a family and their career ( Schneiderman, 2012). One the most perverse aspects of the story is Anastasia’s agreement to sign a dominant/submissive contract with Christian ( James, 2011).Īstonishingly, the book has sold over 100 million copies and the movie has also been a worldwide success. In Fifty Shades of Grey, the couple’s Bondage-Domination-Sadism-Masochism practice involves Christian as the dominant and Anastasia as the submissive partner. Although there is debate about what may be considered “acceptable” within the context of Bondage-Domination-Sadism-Masochism, many practices are painful and go on to propagate traditional gender role dynamics, such as aggressive performances ( Barker, Iantaffi, & Gupta, 2007). To illustrate, Bondage-Domination-Sadism-Masochism refers to a range of behaviors in a sexual context characterized by fetishes, role-playing, and nonmainstream activities, which includes aspects of power and pain and where there is the consent of all parties involved ( Barker, Iantaffi, & Gupta, 2007 Weiss, 2011). Both the trilogy and the movie depict a romantic and erotic Bondage-Domination-Sadism-Masochism ( Cooper, 2012 Weiss, 2011) relationship concerning 28-year-old millionaire Christian Grey and 22-year-old college graduate Anastasia Steele ( James, 2011). James’s novel (the first of the trilogy) was published by Vintage Books, while Hollywood released a movie adaptation of the book on Valentine’s Day 2015.
There has been no more eagerly anticipated movie this year ( Robey, 2015). There can be no doubt that the movie adaptation of the book Fifty Shades of Grey ( De Luca, Brunetti, James, & Taylor-Johnson, 2015) has been a phenomenon.
